Lane went to the bookstore he spent 1/3 of his money on a pen and 4/6 of it on books what fraction of his money did he have left

2 answers:

6 0

First, you have to find a common denominator between 3 and 6. 3 goes into 6 evenly, so 6 is the lowest common denominator.( always go with the lowest common denominator.) Since 3 goes into 6 2 times, what you do to the denominator you do to the numerator.
1/3 x 2 = 2/6. 4/6 stays the same bc the denominator is already 6.
Now, 4/6 - 2/6 = 2/6
Lane had 2/6 of his money left.
Final answer:2/6

Answer: I believe that it might be $1.00

Step-by-step explanation: Well the problem doesn’t tell you how much money he HAD, so if you do 1/3+4/6 you should get 6/6 or 1 as the amount that Lane had.

A regular pentagon has an apothem of 3.2 and an area of 37.2 m. What

soldier1979 [14.2K]

The area of any regular polygon can be expressed as:

(ns^2)/(4tan(180/n)) where n is number of sides and s is a side length (no apothem needed :D)

37.2=5s^2/(4tan36)

s^2=(148.8tan36)/5

s≈4.65m

Enter the value for x that makes the equation 4x-2+3x-7 true

expeople1 [14]

Answer:

I think the answer is

$x = \frac{9}{7}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Reason :

$4x - 2 + 3x - 7 = 0 \\ collect \: like \: terms \\ 4x + 3x - 7 - 2 = 0 \\ 7x - 9 = 0 \\ 7x = 9 \\ x = \frac{9}{7}$

Therefore

$x = \frac{9}{7}$

Eva has borrowed 200 songs from her friend. She plans to download an equal number of songs on her music player each week for 5 w

Alenkasestr [34]

PART A)

The rate of change is -40 songs each week, because the amount of songs left to be downloaded decrease by 40 every week.

the initial value is 200 at 0 weeks, which means that there are 200 songs to be downloaded at the beginning

PART B)

calculate the slope:
 m = (y2- y1)/(x2 - x1) = (160 - 200)/(1 - 0)
m = -40
now use the line equation in form of point-slope
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
y - 200 = -40(x - 0)
y = -40x + 200
